LUV IT!!!!!

i LUV LUV LUV this quilt! It is so cute and fun that this picture just doesn't do it justice! This is my 2nd finish this weekend and i'm so excited! i cut the fabric out for this Saturday morning, sewed some blocks Saturday evening, made the pinwheels Sunday morning and put the quilt together this evening ... and it's only 7:54 pm! WOOTWOOT!!! OH! and i have plenty of fabric left to make a 2nd quilt, so i'm thinking maybe next year i'll do another one of these quilts and give it as a gift :O)
So now here is what i'mthinkin ... i bought striped fabric for the binding ... see pic below ... so i'mthinkin this quilt needs a solid black border, maybe just 3 1/2" so that the binding doesn't get lost in the quilt .... what do you think?

I have been married for 22 years, started quilting in January '08 and am an absolute addict! My husband and I have his and her Harley's and it's the best thing we've ever done...I call it our mid-life crisis.
